LONDON (Reuters) – Tottenham Hotspur won an impressive 3-1 victory over Leicester City in Wembley on 26th round of the English Premier League.
The London team has won its 20th win in the competition this season, as well as its victory leaders and vice-champion Manchester City.
In fact, Tottenham has not won 20 or more victories – out of 26 in the English Premier League – only in the 1960/61 season, with 22 wins at the end of the competition.
Tottenham reached 60 points in the third place of the table, the highest score in his history after 26 laps, and more than 7 points in the previous best records.
Davenson Sanchez gave the advantage to his head to propel a rocket-propelled head after a cross drawn by teammate Christian Eriksen after 33 minutes.
The Colombian defender is the 147-year-old who has always scored for Tottenham in the English Premier League, the most multinational club tied with West Ham United.
The 58th minute saw a significant spark in the match. Leicester was sanctioned with a penalty after a blocking of the area that Michael Oliver had not hesitated to rely on.
The kick was counted when Jamie Farde replaced the ball while James Madison passed the ball and the penalty was his first touch on the field.
The first contact was not successful, Vardi lost the ball and missed the opportunity to draw after the French Ojo Lauris, captain and goalkeeper Tottenham.
Wembley was the only one to have had no kick in the English Premier League this season, while Leicester missed a second penalty for Totalia after Madison's loss to Cardiff City.
Lauris accelerated his shots on goal by scoring an average of 6 shots on 24 in the Premier League.
The penalty came quickly and Denmark's Erickson fired a shot from outside the box in the 63rd minute, signaling the goal of the second goal and reinforcing the progression of the pitch's owners.
The goal is Eriksson's number 20 outside the penalty area during his English Premier League career.
Vardy refused to surrender and reappeared in the 76th minute, scoring Leicester's first goal in the Premier League against the Big Six (Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea).
However, Korean Sun Hyung-min fired a knockout in the first minute of the stoppage time, scoring a third goal for Tottenham after a mid-field counterattack.
Sun has scored for the third consecutive game since returning from the Asian Cup, scoring 15 goals in his last 12 Premier League matches.
